Call of Duty: World at War Beta

Post by DaIceMan »

www.callofduty.com/beta

Pretty fun in my opinion. Reminiscent of Call of Duty 2 with some of the better features of COD 4 mixed it. There are weapon unlocks, perks, etc like COD4, but a throw back to the old COD 2 weapons. Also added a friends system which works great for adding/joining friends in game.

Pretty good time so far, and the game works quite well for a beta once installed. Several people get an initialization error... which can easily be solved by reinstalling DirectX.

if anyone is playing, post up or PM me your game name and I'll add you to my friends list.

I played Big Red One on Xbox a long while back, and didn't enjoy it that much. I loved CoD4 though. Do you think I will like World at War?

I guess it is too early to ask the question though, because I won't use the Multiplayer at all.

LOL. I've quickly determined that the knife is by far the best gun in the game... especially with my 3mb DSL.

who's your provider? I've created 2 with gmail (one for me, one for my son) and they both came through with no problem. I just click to confirm my email and then the code is on the site when I log in.

are you guys using an existing account name, or creating new ones? Buddy of mine said using existing names was causing problems.
